小松奈々(koumatsu nana) portrayed by 宮﨑あおい (miyazaki aoi). a lively young woman who lives with her happy family in a moderate town not very far from tokyo. her boyfriend 章司役 (asano takashi) has moved to study art in tokyo. she believes that one day she will live happily ever after with him.

but life doesn’t always turn out the way we want it to be…

nana 『-ナナ-』 the movie is based on comic series by 矢沢あい (yazawa ai) it’s a story about two women… how they came to tokyo and how they met each other. coincidentally both of them have the same name.

i never read the manga version, so i didn’t know the story beforehand. as i can see, the story-telling is pretty much like what we usually see in the manga. there is one nice instrumental theme song which keeps arising here and there most of the time, just like what it would be in the animation.

all the songs featuring in the film are pretty nice and quite catchy. the live concert scene rocks! it’s a good movie and i guess that it definitely lives up every expectation of nana’s fans. i really really like the last scene when nana is about to open the door. absolutely breathtaking, i’d say
